" 01/01/2002 - "Nine adult open bite patients (7 women and 2 men) successfully treated with SAS were included in the following study. " 01/01/2002 - "Thus, it was concluded that SAS would be a valid modality to intrude mandibular molars for correction of open bite." 01/01/2002 - "Treatment and posttreatment dentoalveolar changes following intrusion of mandibular molars with application of a skeletal anchorage system (SAS) for open bite correction." 02/01/2001 - "The skeletal anchorage system (SAS) was developed as intraoral rigid anchors for open-bite correction by intrusion of molars.

Four of 5 patients had a stable Class I occlusion on follow-up, and 1 developed a 3-mm open bite postoperatively. " 12/01/2003 - "At the end of the observation period, patients who had shown a vertical growth direction, resulting in an increase in open bite, were given an MAD IV appliance and were instructed to wear the appliance 18 hours a day for 7.5 months. " 11/01/1998 - "Specifically, vertical distraction in the inferior direction (creating an open bite) also leads to isolated increases in the anteroposterior plane. " 11/01/1998 - "First, distraction using a uniplanar device in an anteroposterior direction can result in a persistent anterior open bite. " 11/01/1998 - "Conversely, vertical distraction in the superior direction (closing an open bite), as seen in a human malocclusion, may lead to isolated decreases in the anteroposterior plane, but this question remains to be investigated in the laboratory."

Therapies and Procedures

1.	Dental Occlusion 02/01/1999 - "The system was also very effective for controlling the cant and level of the occlusal plane during orthodontic open-bite correction." 10/01/2002 - "The maxillary occlusal plane did not rotate in group 1, in contrast to the clockwise rotation in group 2. The maxillary incisors were proclined slightly in group 1, but in contrast they were retroclined and extruded in group 2. In conclusion, the force application from near the center of resistance of the maxilla was an effective method to prevent the unwanted side effects, such as counter-clockwise rotation of the maxilla, in group 1. The group 2 results suggest that this method can be used effectively on patients who present as class III combined with an anterior open bite." 10/01/1999 - "Placement of the distractors parallel to the maxillary occlusal plane eliminated the tendency for an anterior open bite. " 11/01/2009 - "DISCUSSION: Postoperative occlusal plane tilting is a predictive factor of postoperative open bite relapse." 11/01/2009 - "[Occlusal plane orientation and postoperative anterior open bite relapse]" Order ALL the reference details at left...
2.	Osteotomy 12/01/1975 - "When intraoral access is adequate and other physical characteristics are satisfactory, total mandibular alveolar osteotomy can be used effectively to correct skeletal (infantile) apertognathia.

" 12/01/1989 - "In this study, an adult female patient with anterior open-bite is reported, who has been treated by means of posterior maxillary osteotomy and has obtained a good occlusion and profile, which is stable throughout the retention period.
